Spanish Avenue

Spanish Avenue is a street in northern Los Angeles, California. The street was a long two-way avenue, passing through the Melrose District, West Hollywood, Downtown Hollywood, and Beverly Hills. The street was fully comprised of buildings and apartment complexes, and the Capitol Records Building, the Galileo House, the Hollywood Gardens Hotel, Sunset Plaza, the Church of Scientology Celebrity Center, The Royale apartment complex, and the Hornburg Land Rover Jaguar dealership are all located along the avenue. The avenue was named for the Spanish explorers who laid down a dirt path along the road during their colonization of Los Angeles during the 18th century.
